• •Use the settings as intended rather than defaulting to maximum.

What UK owners report

"Blazing fast for work" — The M5 chip handles everything I throw at it, from video editing to Xcode builds, without breaking a sweat.

"Great machine, missing charger" — Love the performance and build quality, but Apple not including a power adapter is frustrating.
